Or, cross-back lunges with a knee tuck Because both moves incorporate so many muscles, they are very efficient. However, I usually change the time , number of sets, or what exercises surround them. I frequently like to combine my two loves, running & crossfit . Out of the 'Box' WOD Run 800m 10 push-ups 20 air squats 30 full sit-ups [Repeat 6 times] Breaking up the 3 miles allows me to run harder. Additionally, I get the added benefit of strength training, further boosting my metabolism for 24 hours post-WOD. I'm gearing up for The CrossFit Games July 13-15th in Carson, CA, both mentally and physically. I kind of feel like I need a six-pack to even spectate! Have you seen those athletes?! 
Time to get focused in the kitchen and the gym (or box ); I have some work to do! I'll be live tweeting during The Games , so follow #CrossFitGNC for updates! ***** What remains routine for you in the summer? What changes (if any) do you make? *FitFluential LLC compensated me for this campaign. All opinions are my own. |

Keep your body guessing & you will see changes.
When I began distance running , I didn't vary my speed much, just my mileage. You know what? My body figured it out and stayed the same.
I learned to work smarter and incorporate HIIT into my running and strength training workouts.
By continually mixing up my workouts, eating whole foods (more frequently-still working on this thanks to this girl's reminders), and using specific supplements , I'm making changes.
And, I don't get bored! I rarely do the same order of exercises or running intervals.
Yes, I tend to default to plank row to frog jumps
